Definitions

  • the invention relates to a connection device for the torque-transmitting coupling of a hollow shaft to a connection component, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

  • Such cab suspension systems can be designed with lower spring rates and softer shock absorbers than the axle suspension itself, thanks to the much lower mass of the cab than the vehicle mass, which is why road bumps or vibrations originating from the powertrain or axles of the vehicle become apparent thanks to such softer cab suspension systems be better isolated from the driver's workplace or kept away.
  • Such suspension devices for driver's cabs are structurally complex, in particular in the case of increased demands on the lateral force support or on the kinematics-such as, for example, pitch or roll suppression and side guidance.
  • roll stabilizers in addition to the actual spring or damper elements, similar to axle suspensions of motor vehicles, roll stabilizers in particular must be provided with which the undesired lateral roll of the driver's cab relative to the vehicle chassis can be restricted.
  • roll stabilization for example in oblique or cornering, but also for example in the case of unilateral road bumps - are used in suspension devices for cabs according to the prior art roll stabilizers in the form of torsion bars, or in the form of stabilizer hollow shafts, whereby the compression travel of the on Direction of travel related left and right suspension elements of the cab are coupled to each other to a certain extent.
  • the stabilizer fares each end by means of a storage with the Vehicle cab is connected, while the stabilizer near end of this torque lever is connected to the roll stabilizer.
  • the stabilizer itself is the chassis-fixed bearing of the moment lever, or it is arranged at Stabilisatornahen end of the torque lever each additional bearing point, which serves for the movable connection of the torque lever on the chassis, as well as for initiating the reaction forces occurring during roll motions in the chassis.
  • connection devices in particular between roll stabilizers and their associated moment levers are exposed to very high stresses over the life. This is especially true if - for reasons of weight saving while increasing the torsional stiffness - torsion bars or stabilizer shafts for roll stabilizers in the form of comparatively thin-walled torsion tubes or hollow shafts are formed.
  • connection devices also extends, for example, to roll stabilization and axle guidance in vehicle axles, in particular in commercial vehicle axles.
  • vehicle axles existing in the prior art mainly from solid material, bent from one piece anti-roll bars used, which have a correspondingly high mass, especially in heavy commercial vehicles, and their material utilization degree with respect to the intended twisting or Vercardsteiftechnik is conceivably unfavorable.
  • the replacement of the massive anti-roll bars by larger-volume, relatively thin-walled and therefore lighter hollow shafts has hitherto often failed because of the problematic connection technology between such hollow shafts and the torque-transmitting connecting components for example, momentary levers.
  • connection device for torque-transmitting connection between hollow shafts and their connection components, with which the mentioned disadvantages can be overcome.
  • the connecting device is intended to enable the harmless transmission of high torques between particular thin-walled hollow shafts and the respective connection components, at the same time high failure safety.

  • the at least one of the hollow shaft associated bearing support can now be formed integrally with the press plugs thanks to the invention, eliminates the need to accommodate this storage - as in the prior art - to be connected to the hollow shaft connection component, for example, to a torque lever of a roll stabilizer have to.
  • the pressing plug forms directly a bearing pin for a bearing bush of at least one of the hollow shaft associated storage. In this way, a particularly compact and robust storage can be realized.
  • bearing bushes of more than one bearing are or can be arranged on the pressing plug be arranged there.
  • further constructive functions also unite on the press plug, which in particular further space, more mass, and additional costs can be saved. Also, this can be achieved with less effort a suspension or bearing arrangement with higher overall stiffness.
  • connection device according to the invention is basically suitable for any connection of a hub-like component to the end of a hollow shaft.
  • the hollow shaft is a torsion spring or torsion spring, wherein the connecting member forms a torsion leg of the torsion spring, and wherein the pressing plug arranged at least one bearing forms a bearing point of the torsion spring.
  • a torsion spring a structurally advantageous dual function of the torsion bar and the Torsionsschenkel connecting presser reaches insofar as the presser plug in this way serves both as a fastener for the torsion leg on the torsion bar, as well as a bearing point for suspension or storage of the torsion bar.
  • the invention is realized independently of the specific application of the connecting device according to the invention, since the connecting device can basically be used in a variety of types of shaft hub connections.
  • the hollow shaft forms a roll stabilizer of a cab of a commercial vehicle, such as a truck.
  • the connection component forms a handlebar for guiding the Driver's cab, wherein the at least one bearing arranged on the pressing plug can be arranged in a bearing block connected to the vehicle chassis or to the driver's cab.
  • this achieves a triple function of the pressing plug, in that it serves both as a fastening means for the guide link on the stabilizer body, as a bearing point for the suspension of the stabilizer and as a connection of the stabilizer to the chassis or driver's cab.
  • the desired functional compression of the roll stabilizer itself can be achieved by the roll stabilizer in a structurally particularly simple and robust manner combines both the function of a trailing arm for the cab, that of a wishbone, as well as the stabilizer function in itself.

  • This embodiment has the additional advantage that a roll stabilizer of a motor vehicle axle connection in this way - especially in the case of heavy commercial vehicles - also can take over demanding handlebar or Rad Entrysauf polygonal connector, thereby otherwise required modules, space and appropriate space and the associated Costs can be saved.
  • the bearing bush of a bearing for a spring / damper element is arranged on the press plug.
  • this bearing bush can be present either alternatively or in addition to the arranged on the press-stop bearing of the hollow shaft.
  • the pressing plug can now even receive a quadruple function, namely by the pressing plugs the function of the connecting means of a handlebar or torsion leg with a hollow shaft, the function of a bearing for the hollow shaft, the function of the connection of the hollow shaft with a connection component (eg chassis, axle or cab) and additionally the function of an attack point for a resilient / damping suspension (for example, for an axle or a cab) forms.

  • the pressing plug according to the invention can in principle be used profitably even in the case of hollow shafts having a circular cross-section in the connecting area.
  • the transferable torque between the hollow shaft and the connection component torque can be increased decisively, as hereby, in addition to the frictional connection by the press fit and by the pressing plug, added the positive locking due to deviating from the circular shape connecting cross-section.
  • the increase in the transmittable torque arises initially independent of the concrete, deviating from the circular shape cross-sectional shape of the hollow shaft and the pressing plug and the recess of the connection component.
  • the hollow shaft (in the connection region), the compression plugs and the connection recess with an oval or elliptical cross-sectional shape, with which, in particular, only a minimal additional notch effect occurs.

  • the hollow shaft and the recess of the connection component each have a substantially polygonal cross-section.
  • a particularly intimate form fit between the hollow shaft and the connection component is achieved, and it is possible to transmit particularly high torques.

  • the cross-sectional shape of the hollow shaft and connecting component in the connecting region is formed as a uniform thickness.
  • the so-called equal thickness represents a closed line as a cross-sectional shape, which - similar to a circle inscribed in a square - always touches all four sides of the square in every angular position within a matching square.
  • the same thickness as a cross-sectional shape of the hollow shaft and connecting component in the connection area thus provides a particularly effective compromise between the polygon with optimal positive locking, but higher Notch effect on the one hand, and the circular cross-section, without positive locking and without notch effect, on the other hand dar.
  • the pressing plug and the recess of the connection component in the connecting region of the hollow shaft and the connection component in the shaft-axial direction are slightly tapered.
  • higher and more uniform surface pressures between pressing plug, hollow shaft and recess of the connection component arise when pressing in the pressing plug.
  • higher torques can be safely transmitted, and also results in a higher tear resistance of the connection component in the axial direction, since the pressing plug expands the previously prismatic end of the hollow shaft during insertion and thereby presses against the conically tapered inner contour of the connection component.

  • the pressing plug is hollow, or has a recess in the axial direction.
  • this leads to a weight saving in the compression plug and on the other hand allows an improvement in the line of force in the area of the press connection, due to the then smaller wall thickness jumps at the point of entry of the hollow shaft in the press connection.
  • the invention can first of all be realized independently of the specific choice of material for the pressing plug.
  • the pressing plug is preferably made of a ferrous material (for example steel) or of a non-ferrous metal (for example aluminum).
  • a pressing plug made of steel can be represent cost, while providing high strength and allows the production of high surface pressures.
  • a pressing plug made of aluminum is particularly advantageous in terms of its low weight and high ductility of aluminum. The latter also contributes to the reduction of the harmful edge pressure and the associated undesirable notch effect, which otherwise can occur in particular in the region of the entry of the hollow shaft in the press connection.

  • a pressed plug designed in this way is easier to insert and assemble, moreover, the tilting and any chip formation, damage or peeling of material in the region of the inner surface of the hollow shaft during pressing of the pressing plug is avoided in the opening of the hollow shaft.
  • a further embodiment of the invention provides that the deviating from the circular shape cross-sectional shape of the hollow shaft is substantially present only in the connection region of the hollow shaft with the connection component.

Also, the connection between the momentary levers 2 and the cab by means of the bearings 3, and with respect to the spring / damper elements and thus the vehicle chassis by means of the additional bearings 5 is not only expensive, but can also lead to undesirable elasticities in the assembly.

Therefore, the moment lever 2 in the connecting device according to the invention according to Fig. 3 also tends to be less loaded than in the known from the prior art connection device according to Fig.1 , and can therefore be produced with a less expensive manufacturing process, for example as a casting instead of a forged part, or with the elimination of a possibly necessary in the prior art compensation step in the production of the moment lever. 2
